Eyebrow Waxing

Eyebrows draw attention to the eyes, making the look more expressive. As the unforgettable Leah Akhedzhakova said in the film “Office Romance”: “The eyebrow should be thin, thin, like a thread and raised in surprise.”

Modern fashion trends dictate a slightly different look, gravitating more towards naturalness and naturalness. But beautiful, well-groomed eyebrows without hairs sticking out in different directions, as before, remain relevant for women.

Therefore, many girls resort to the procedure of depilation of the superciliary arches. You can perform this operation in different ways, using ordinary tweezers and removing each extra hair individually, or using the modern method - eyebrow correction with wax.

Compared to conventional hair removal using standard tweezers, eyebrow waxing has several advantages:

1. Fast hair removal - this procedure will take you an average of 15 minutes. For plucking with tweezers, you will spend at least 15 minutes for each eyebrow separately.
2. Availability - all the necessary accessories and components are sold in cosmetics stores, so you can do the modeling yourself at home without spending money on expensive procedures in beauty salons.
3. Lasting effect - after such epilation, a repeated correction procedure must be carried out after 3 weeks. And girls whose hairs grow back slowly can have a second operation after 6 weeks. With other methods of depilation, new hair appears 4-5 days after the procedure.
4. High performance - with tweezers it is very difficult to remove small fluffy hairs, and using wax you can remove any "vegetation" on the face.
5. Less pain - a large number of extra hairs are immediately removed, there is no need to pull them out one at a time, so painful feelings are not so pronounced and lasting.
6. There are no side effects from eyebrow modeling in this way - if you do everything right, then redness, irritation or various kinds of peeling will not appear on the face.

Like any other depilation, wax correction has some disadvantages:

1. You'll have to practice a littleif you plan to do this process yourself at home. From the first time, the shape of the eyebrows can be far from ideal.
2. If the procedure is carried out incorrectly, irritation may occur. Carefully choose the master to whom you apply for correction and modeling, and also carefully study the instructions before proceeding with the removal of unwanted hairs.

There are some contraindications, in the presence of which wax depilation should be abandoned:

• in the presence of personal intolerance to bee products;
• with the development of inflammatory processes, the presence of wounds or cuts in the eye area;
• if you have a large number of moles or warts at the site of correction;
• diseases of the skin in the acute stage;
• with circulatory disorders.

For eyebrow correction, specialized types of wax are used:

• hot;
• low temperature;
• cold.

This tool is made from beeswax and pine resin. It acquires a liquid consistency at a temperature of 45 degrees. It is characterized by rapid cooling, due to which it does not harm small vessels and capillaries located in the upper layers of the epidermis.

It is considered one of the most affordable means that are used at home.It is very convenient to use it, since the substance, which includes wax, has already been applied in a thin layer on a small piece of cloth or paper.

Before gluing to the skin, the wax strips need to be slightly warmed up, for this they need to be rubbed between the palms. The mechanism of action of this cosmetology product is similar to a patch:

1. You need to glue the strip to the skin.
2. It is necessary to remove such a strip with sharp movements directed against the growth of hairs.
